I am not usually a thriller girlie, but this was really fun

DNF at about 180 pages in. I'm just so incredibly bored and I am struggling to want to read or pick up this book. I hate the main character and honestly I couldn't care less about what happens to him. I have definitely read worse books this year but this has to be one of the most boring and honestly I just can't do it anymore.

The premise that this plot was so plotty that no one else could possibly have written a anything like  it ended up being too stupid to sit with. I'm sure it's a wonderful story, but it's not for me.

This was so good. I love the inception vibes with book inside of a book. I think the big plot twist was fairly predictable both in the main book and in the inner book but was still such a fun read. I enjoyed how many layers the plot had and reading about writing was cool.
